Novel Electrochemical Biosensing for Detection of Neglected Tropical Parasites of Animal Origin: Recent Advances

Parasitic diseases are among neglected disease of human and animals, especially in tropical and sub tropical regions. In the era of artificial intelligence, the novel biosensing diagnostic platform is needed for an early control measure implementation. This goal can be successfully achieved by onsite application of electrochemical biosensors. They are being developed towards point of care diagnostics; however commercial availability is scanty. The recent developments during last one decade in terms of the electrode surface modification for rapid diagnosis of important emerging/re-emerging parasites is presented. The information would help future improvement in the electrochemical biosensing of parasites.

Automated summary

Parasitic diseases, neglected in both human and animals, particularly in tropical and sub tropical regions, require improved biosensing techniques for early diagnosis and control. Electrochemical biosensors show promising potential in the on-site diagnosis of parasites.
